Quantitative land evaluation implemented in Dutch water management

Evaluation of Quantitative Impact of Watershed Management Projects on Underground water Level (Case Study: Jamab Project)

Performance and control are two important components in any executive activity and their purposes are to correct and improve the functions and reduce wasting resources for better productivity and adoption of appropriate techniques that ultimately lead to the development of programs. Therefore, the present study aimed to simulate underground water flow and investigate the effects of artificial ...

Water management measures analysed for Dutch basins to reduce flooding

Flooding in the northern part of The Netherlands has caused serious economic threats to densely populated areas. Therefore a project has been carried out in a pilot area to assess the retention of water in two river basins as a way to reduce flooding. The physically-based groundwater and surface water model SIMGRO was used to model the hydrology of the basins. The model was calibrated using dis...

Economic land evaluation for agricultural resource management in Northern Thailand

This paper describes a GIS-based system, EconSuit, that supports dynamic assessment of economic land suitability for major economic crops in Northern Thailand. Prior to economic land evaluation, a physical land suitability index is computed using a fuzzy set approach in GIS. The procedure bypasses crop modeling and permits suitability to be defined in a continuous scale with a graphic interface...
